We dont have anymore than that. We live in the bay million and then go very far, hopefully they 180 day tuesday come forward and claim that prize. Im fascinating by that thing down the road, the rain thing youre talking about. Its been about five weeks of dry weather. Lets get that fire season off the map. Weve had some very dry conditions. Youre not going to break the records we broke because were at zero. It doesnt get any lower than that. Last month no measurable rain. Santa rosa, napa, oakland, sfo, San Francisco, livermore, san jose, but look how much rain we missed out on. 3 to 6 inches of rain we just didnt get in the month of february. And notice now in San Francisco were at the fourth largest winter dry spell as we see 33 days without measurable rainfall and well probably add another five to this as things change as we head towards next weekend. Unusually dry, right now still dry out there. Weve got some offshore winds, 18 Miles Per Hour and seeing some breezy conditions, gusts up to 28. 58 degrees currently and san jose not so much wind in san jose. 54 degrees, 60 was the high today. Tomorrow closer to 70 degrees, so notice the strongest winds in the red and purple in the north and east bay hills. Theyll probably stay that way, we may briefly see some winds around the peninsula hilltops, too. Its that offshore breeze as you know that really helps to warmup our temperatures. We should be for the most part in the 40s in the morning and still jacket weather as you head outside for your morning commute, a start of a warming trend starting to show up in that seven day forecast especially for the valleys. And warmest spot probably santa rosa, and then some mid70s in reach. Theres High Pressure yet again builds back towards the coast through the middle part of the week. Now, some changes arrive starting friday night and saturday. Well see this band of rain push through. It looks pretty light. Actually most places probably picking up less than a quarter inch of rain or maybe a little bit less than that. Its a system sitting here behind it that will stay offshore sunday, and some of the latest weather models actually keep it offshore probably through about monday and tuesday. And then as it makes its final approach tuesday into wednesday youll have to go a little bit farther out in time there. March 11th now we may not even see the rain come back but we could see the tap with some tropical moisture and as that low sits just off the coast of california if you can make that a tropical connection, that could boost some of the rain rates, maybe more so for the Santa Cruz Mountains down towards california. This is why were getting at least a bit more excited in the 7 to 10 day outlook for rainfall. Towards the end of next weekend were hoping that storm door starts to open up. In the meantime springtime temperatures mid70s for part of the valleys middle of the part some light rain. And looks like sunday is the day we stay tuned. We hope finally to make that big come back for central and Southern California and the bay area by the beginning of next week. Coming up, struggling to say goodbye.

We all know that. But a die hard group of fans are not letting them go easily. This friday a Court Hearing is expected over the raiders departure. A fan group filed a lawsuit hoping to bring a new nfl team to oakland while keeping the raiders name and the colors here. The lawsuit also argues nfl owners colluded when they voted to move to las vegas and they cant take the raiders name with them, they cant even take the silver and black says the lawsuit.

A recent bank survey found half of us have gift cards or other vouchers or store credits lying around. The average millennial has about 250. Collectively americans have about 1 billion worth of unused cards. This is real money. People need to take advantage of this. My number one tip is take inventory of what you have. Put those old gift cards to use. Experts say its important you use those cards or regift them. Inflation could reroad some of the buying power and if the store goes out of business that card becomes worthless.

Have you been paid any money . No money up to this dat mentl Health Alibaba corporation has another case against it that same year. Even still we discovered it still does business with santa clara county. The county pays it 300,000 a year to provide Mental Health beds. A palo alto Real Estate Developer founded alibaba in 1974. He and his wife spoke with us while traveling through phoenix. Both blame the wage problems on a poor manager. I had a very bad manager, unfortunately, which is possibility for anybody to have. Reporter even so three years after those judgments alibaba still has not paid either worker and he says he wont pay out of him the legal paperunorganized. They are so unprofessional that we were never informed fortunately i am the owner of the corporation. I was never informed with a registered letter that there was a case against me. Are you going to pay your workers Going Forward . If your question refers to are you going to pay this judgment i say no. I will fight that to the end. Reporter records show the registered agent for alibaba was official served with Labor Commission notices. And we found no other appeal or pending action on these matters. If you are not paying your workers the Law Enforcement takes it very seriously. Reporter betty young says situations like lutishas prompted to pass an ordinance discouraging the county from doing businesses with companies that fail to pay workers. Were talking about wages that have already been earned. Reporter young serves as manager of that new office of labor standards that was formed last september, but we found not just alibaba was 36 other companies with 1. 9 million with wage thefts against them that still do business with santa clara county. A total of 70 contracts in all. Three of those Companies Got contracts worth 200 million after having cases against them. We took that question to the former director of the south bay labor council. Were going to get to it bottom of every single complaint. 37 businesses we found as not paying their workers that still have contracts with santa clara county. Does that surprise you .

Consumer investigator chris moore breaks it down for us. And the week begins with a wind advisory through the higher hills around the bay area as we await the return of some much needed rain in that seven day forecast. A closer look when we come right back. Metastatic Breast Cancer is relentless, but i was relentless first. Relentless about learning the first song we ever danced to. About teaching him to put others first. About helping her raise her first child. And when i was first diagnosed, my choice was everyday verzenio. Its the only one of its kind that can be taken every day. It gives us more time without cancer progressing. Verzenio is the only cdk4 6 inhibitor approved with hormonal therapy that can be taken every day for postmenopausal women with hr , her2 mbc. Diarrhea is common, may be severe, or cause dehydration or infection. At the first sign of diarrhea, call your doctor, start an antidiarrheal, and drink fluids. Before taking verzenio, tell your doctor if you have fever, chills, or other signs of infection. Verzenio may cause low white blood cell counts, which may cause serious infection that can lead to death. Lifethreatening inflammation of the lungs can occur. Talk to your doctor if you have new or worsening trouble breathing, cough, or chest pain. Serious liver problems can happen. Symptoms include tiredness, appetite loss, stomach pain, and bleeding or bruising. Blood clots that can lead to death have occurred. Tell your doctor if you have pain or swelling in your arms or legs, shortness of breath, chest pain, rapid breathing or heart rate, or if you are pregnant or nursing. My relentless reason its them. My choice with my doctor its verzenio. Ask your doctor if everyday verzenio is right for your first treatment. Nbc bay area responds to medical billing complaints ranging from a few dollars to six figures, but were not the only one battling big bills from hospitals and Insurance Companies. Chris chmura introduces us to a professional bill fighter. Reporter weve gone a couple of rounds with Lisa Berry Blackstock this past year. 145,000. Thats beyond price gouging. Reporter early in 2019 we team up to help a peninsula family fight a six figure air ambulance bill. Later in the year we helped a San Francisco woman after her surgery tripled in price. A hospital bill for 162,000. Reporter in both cases lisa defended the patients and won. Its her full time job as a private patient advocate. Most people still dont know including the medical profession do not know what a private patient advocate is. Reporter some hospitals and Insurance Companies have Patient Advocates on staff to take questions, but you can hire your own like lisa to do more. Whoever pays you, that is ultimately who a person is beholden to. Lisa says she can help you decode hospital lingo and punch through their paperwork. That includes scrutinizing every line on your bill and even negotiating the price youve been charged. Her clients pay a flat fee, typically less than 2,000. If i dont save them more money than they pay to retain my services, i will give them a refund. Reporter private Patient Advocates are a rare breed. The National Association of Health Care Advocacy lists just 149 for the entire u. S. 32 of them serve california. Can you do what they do yourself and knock down your bill on your own . Lisa says, yes. Round one, she says demand a detailed item by item list of charges. Never accept a summarized invoice. Round two, challenge any charge you dont think was necessary and fair. And round three, aim high. Lisa doesnt deal with people in the hospital phone bank. She demands the sfo review the account and she makes her case by certified mail. Lisa says spending 3. 35 at the post office to mail a letter certified usually gets the hospitals attention. 3. 35 that might save you hund a scenario of what really happened and what a fair and reasonable price is, and thats my offer. Rab joining us now with a look at the forecast and especially intrigued by that rain were talking about a little bit. Were still seeing some rain come in on saturday, and then we have the potential for more substantial rain in about lets say the 7 to 10 day forecast, but we just received a model update thats slowing it down just a little bit, so well explain that in a moment. Right now a Crescent Moon off to the west of San Francisco. Youve got 56 degrees, winds at 18 Miles Per Hour, and there will be an offshore breeze. Should be climbing close to the upper 60s and in the meantime San Francisco and the rest of the bay area very likely in that fourth longest winter this will at least get to about de and the wind should actually help keep the temperatures up and what the offshore breeze is, look at the highs tomorrow. Today we were close to 60 and tomorrow at 71 scree degrees in san jose. Close to 73 in santa rosa. So we begin with the wind advisory. Strongest gust likely inland and already seen gusts of 50 to 60 plus Miles Per Hour, but a lot less in terms of those gusty winds at lower elevations so this is the trend as we go through the morning. Areas of red and purple hilltops about midmorning start to fade away. We still see the offshore winds not quite as strong by the time we get off to the afternoon evening and probably to about friday midday, were going to stay dry, and High Pressure will allow for our temperatures to w chance of showers coming through right there, but here is where things may hit thedown. So thats sunday into monday off to the west.
